My kiddo is 10 n we are at the love hate stage we fight so often but also make up easily. think there will be a hate-hate stage? I am so loving your blog, so many expressions. mother, wife n best a woman. I identify with many of the delimas n problems that you face in married life but I have never had the courage to discuss them n writing them takes a whole lot of courage. Hats off to you.
